Economics Minister Peter Altmaier assumes that exceptions for corona vaccinated people can be discussed "in June or July".

The CDU politician told the newspapers of the Funke media group (Saturday).

"So whether people who have been vaccinated twice can be spared the quarantine - for example after contact with infected people or after trips abroad.

Or whether people can visit a restaurant without taking a quick test first.

I can well imagine that. ”But these are questions that rely heavily on the expertise of science and its findings with vaccinations.

The question of which restrictions for vaccinated people could be removed should also be at the center of the planned Prime Minister's Conference this Monday.

Shortly before the German government published new forecasts on economic development, Altmaier was also optimistic.

"Despite the ongoing lockdown situation, the economy is developing stronger than many expected," he said.

“In January we forecast growth of 3 percent.

According to the current figures, it looks even better. "

The federal government will present its spring projection next week.

“There is reason to be optimistic.

This year we will not only stop the economic slump, we will reverse it, ”said Altmaier.

"We will see an upturn this year."
